Lovely Friday news; our EPSRC Impact Accelerator Account proposal has been successfully funded. Titled "Ditching Methane to Engineer Net Zero" (yes, it's about ditches), and with
@laurabaugh94.bsky.social
and
@peatblogger.bsky.social
also on board. Looking forward to more ditch GHG work in 2026.

Migneint blanket bog with
@laurabaugh94.bsky.social
today, installing collars for our
@water4all-eu.bsky.social
project ECOWADE, + doing some pool GHG measurements for Laura's PhD. Also enjoyed visiting a new restoration site where work has just started to reprofile an eroded area of peat hags.

The 3 week Swedish adventure has come to an end. In total 20 sites have been sampled for GHG emissions including radiocarbon analysis. Sites ranged from Uppsala all the way down to Kalmar, Southern Sweden

Visited three sites today near Skövde, Sweden for aquatic GHG emissions. We even made a helpful new field assistant 🐱

Whew, a big field day in Uppland today with
@laurabaugh94.bsky.social
and
@tksilver.bsky.social
. We drove 300km and visited 7 rewetted/restored peatlands along the way. We made it to the wild and rocky NE coast of the county, before returning to Uppsala via a small but lovely alkaline fen.

Lovely to be once again back in Uppsala. Visited five rewetted/restored peatlands today to measure aquatic GHG emissions with

GHG sampling earlier this week at Westhay Moore, Somerset at some of the newer restoration areas. We even found some Sundew on site

Incredible images from
@fdraper.bsky.social
's drone flying. Here's a lovely view of Sphagnum recolonising the recently rewetted "Mini Moss" raised bog site.
add a skeleton here at some point

Had a great day today
@egu.eu
for ‘The future of Northern peatlands’ poster session were I presented the first of my PhD work. Thank you to everyone who came along to chat/see my poster (and for inspiring new ideas!)

Great morning with the drone at Risley Moss. Hoping the images captured can be used to work out the total area of water across the sites and used to upscale GHG emissions. Thanks to
@fdraper.bsky.social
for bringing his drone out to capture this data!

At Risley Moss today watching
@fdraper.bsky.social
do some drone flights for
@laurabaugh94.bsky.social
's PhD research. Hoping the images collected will allow us to calculate how much of the bog is comprised of pools and allow us to upscale GHG emissions.

Then on Wednesday, 16:15–18:00, Hall X1 (X1.17),
@laurabaugh94.bsky.social
will have a poster about her ongoing PhD research about bog pools in rewetted peatlands, GHGs and radiocarbon.
